Happy Valentine’s Day Friends and Family of Nellie,
What an exciting day at Nellie today. We celebrated Valentine’s Day and our bottle drive winners as we thanked them for raising so much money for the school. We also had some exceptional demonstrations of skipping, wow do we have talented students. Yes we raised well over $2000.00 for the Heart and Stroke Foundation so yes…I had the great joy of having 4 pies mashed into my face…but all for a good cause.
Thank you for your amazing generosity…we will send home the grand total of money raised next week.
Just a reminder that it is Teachers Convention on Thursday and Friday and Family Day Monday…so no school. We will see the Citizens of Nellie back on Tuesday February 20. I hope you all have a fantastic Family Day Long Weekend.
Sincerely,
Darren Dyck, Principal

Parking Lot
Thank you to all of the folks who have changed their routines because of the parking lot closure. We will be reopening the parking lot this coming week but please remember that the parking lot is not intended to be a kiss and drop location. Families are reminded that students should be dropped off on Palliser Drive or in the alley behind the school. Please let’s keep our children safe!
Jump Rope For Heart
We have raised over $2 900.00 for the Heart and Stroke Foundation. Donations will be accepted until Tuesday at the link below. Thank you all so much for your generosity!! https://jumpropeforheart.crowdchange.ca/52088
